It's OK, everyone. It's nothing to worry about. It makes no odds if we've got half the squad missing. Adlibber, in one of his endless rants about CW's "excuses", told us in his last post that Wilder "can't make excuses for poor losses any more because the team has managed to win a couple of games without key players in it".

So there we are, then. Adlibber's insightful footballing brain assures us that injuries make no difference. I don't know why anyone bothers to write an article about it, or ask Mickey Lewis his opinion. Or employ physios.

Full credit to the squad and staff for a fantastic effort and spirit in overcoming the odds on Thursday. Keep digging deep. Come on you yellows.

If anyone is experienced at coping without key players, it's Wilder. I think this should be viewed as an opportunity for the development players to get match experience which will benefit them and the club further on down the line.
Also if you look at Wrexham, they're not exactly flying in the league below.
COYY. Get us to the 3rd round

Last year it was the pitches fault so what's the excuse for un fit players this year, there has to be something wrong with the way we do things 2 years on a trot we have had this problem. And I'm guessing the chairman has no wishes for promotion, with a team at the top and struggling for fit players you would have thought he would have been busy in the transfer window, but oh no not us we will make do withe teenagers who yes did well Thursday but where very lucky , against a top league 2 side they might not be so lucky and in a few short weeks the dream is over and we are chasing play off places again.

Spot on.
...and yet I understand Wigan Warriors have made six signings for 2014-15.

Way to go! Wilder's little helper comes screaming out of the closet - I could probably recommend a professional to help you with your inferiority issues but first you need to pop your head out from between your buttocks.

Wait till the end of the season chap - I'll bow to your infinite knowledge of all things football should we get promoted. Feel free to cut&paste this response and take it to Chris. He can read it whilst he ruffles your hair.

You could not be further from the truth. IL, CW and the team are all geared to promotion and don't be under any illusion that there is a secret agenda.
Remember the Club has a large debt which IL is financing. With our present attendances we are probably running at a loss which was not forecast nor budgeted for.
As for the pitch, poor maintenance means that at the end of this season it will have to be completely lifted and replaced. A very expensive business and remember also, Kassam takes the rent but is not responsible for any Stadium or pitch maintenance.

Spot on.
...and yet I understand Wigan Warriors have made six signings for 2014-15.

they won the double last year. and have had the highest attendances in the super league for three years in a row.. they wouldn't need cash from lenagan's pocket every time they wanted to sign a player.

Plus its the off season, we signed 15 players in the off season. (including dev. sq.)
